Abstract:
A novel fluorescent biosensor based on dabcyl [(E)-4-((4-(dimethylamino) phenyl) diazenyl)benzoic acid] -modified anti-Mb aptamer (D-AMA) and 6-FAM(6-carboxyfluorescein) -modified complementary short chain (F-CSC)for the specific and sensitive detection of Mb levels is presented in this study. In PBS buffer solution, D-AMA bound to F-CSC, and then dabcyl quenched the fluorescence of 6-FAM. After adding Mb into the system, D-AMA bound to Mb and separated from F-CSC. The fluorescence of 6-FAM was restored after it separated from dabcyl. The assay exhibited high specificity and sensitivity toward Mb, with a low limit of detection of 0.07 ng/mL (S/N = 3) and linear relationships of 0.1-5 ng/mL. It was further applied to detect Mb levels in spiked human blood sera samples.
